Main Unawatuna has waves sometimes. Want calmer spot for a swim. Any suggestions?

Some smaller beaches south of Galle or near the lagoon side are calmer. Ask at your place for the best current spot. Conditions change daily.

Yeah a bit further can be better. Some protected areas have less waves.

Local drivers or hotel staff know the calm ones for the day.

Fake Gem Export SchemeVerified

Someone befriends you and offers a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to buy gems at wholesale prices and resell them abroad for huge profit. They may show you fake export certificates. The gems are worthless glass or low-quality stones.

Restaurants without visible prices. Bill arrives with inflated charges (500 LKR coconut becomes 1500 LKR). "Service charges" added without disclosure.
